Tinted contact lenses for concussion light sensitivity
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests if special tinted contact lenses can help reduce light sensitivity caused by a concussion. It may help people who have had a mild concussion in the past two years and are bothered by light.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a mild concussion (also called a mild traumatic brain injury)
- You are 18 years old or older
- Your injury happened within the last 2 years
- You have light sensitivity (photophobia) that started or got worse after the concussion
- You are able to put in and take out contact lenses safely
- You do not have an eye infection or inflammation that would make wearing contacts risky

This study tests if a type of brain training called neurofeedback can help reduce sensitivity to light in people who have had a mild traumatic brain injury, also known as a concussion, at least 6 months ago.
This study compares special contact lenses (called Altius) with your current FL-41 tinted glasses to see which works better for reducing light sensitivity. If you join, you'll try the contact lenses for a while and then tell the researchers how they worked.
This study aims to objectively measure how your pupils respond to light and how your eye muscles react using recording tests. It may help confirm the cause of light sensitivity (especially after a brain injury) and better track how it responds to care.
This study tests whether cooling the head can help women recover from a concussion. It aims to see if this simple treatment reduces symptoms and speeds up healing.
This trial tests whether a training program using colored light targets can help reduce light sensitivity (photophobia) that some people experience after a traumatic brain injury. The training involves focusing your eyes on lights during several visits.
This trial tests whether a special light therapy (photobiomodulation) can help teenagers recover faster from a sports-related concussion. If you qualify, you will receive the light treatment in addition to your usual care, and researchers will track your symptoms and thinking skills over time.
